But my suggested approach you get less noise. 1 - there is no need to revert a patch in SVN, given that you did not commit it. The net result is the same, no code, or just the fixed code (commit, revert, commit-fix), but without the intermediate trouble for people. 2 - the window of time that it's broken is smaller, as per #1 3 - if a storm happens, as you say, you can easily detect as the commits are nearby. You can also more easily follow the patch contents and history as they are very close, or exact siblings at trac.enlightenment.orgtimeline, your mail agent... You do not get drop by drop over weeks that can let you lost the overall idea. It's also a nice exercise on how to get the workflow fixed for git. If you're using git then the integrator or the gerrit tool will work just like that, merging a patchset and not some random patches now and then tied to "Save" action of your editor. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: barbi...@gmail.com Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
